“Firstly I would to like to say what a honour it is to be trained in such an art, by such a man. It was strange to me at first being involved in boxing for so many years, but Sifu has a wealth of experience in Wing Chun and has been able to take my skills and tune me in to a crisp respectful fighter in this extremely skillful art.
I have the upmost respect for him he’s not just a teacher, he’s a father and wants the best for all his students. We as a club are a brotherhood and would do anything for our Sifu.”
